Resumo

In education in Vietnam, Confucian education plays an important role in forming students' perspectives and choice of major. The influence of Confucianism is often expressed through respect for tradition, ethics, and students' decisions about majors. However, the choice of major also depends on many other factors such as personal interests, abilities and career opportunities. In this research, I will focus on clarifying issues such as Confucian education, surveying the impact of Confucianism on the ethics, lifestyle, choice of major and study attitude of Vietnamese students. Find answers to the questions raised and clearly show the impact of Confucian education on students' choice of major. Consider it in the comprehensive context of today's education and society. Besides, the author also provides discussions and future research directions for this topic.
